I do this actively networking with other investors, sharing content on sites like Bigger Pockets and Think Realty magazine, and building relationships with referral partners like wealth managers.Finally, you have to have the best people working with you from your lender partner, to your property inspector, to your property manager, to your insurance partner, and asset protection and business attorney.

Inspector said the roof should only last 5 more years or so. 

This was after the foundation was given the OK by 2 separate inspectors and occurred due to lack of support under the house, soft soil in Florida, and lack of gutters to disperse rain water from the foundation.

It's also in an area with no building codes or inspectors and we have yet to find anything in the area without visible problems.

Hi all,I'm under contract on a home in Cleveland Heights and inspector suggested a structural engineer look at a few things. 

I just got off a call yesterday with a investor group with a bunch of blue island buildings,  from there experience tenants have been pretty good but the buildings are older and a lot of unexpected problems have arisen so I would say make sure to have a good inspector and some reserves incase work is needed and its a good area to cash flow.

Agents, buyer/seller, insurance agents, attorneys, title companies, inspectors, lenders, mom & dad, relatives and so many others. 

If you don't know what you are doing, you are going to outsource every part of the process from agent to inspector to property manager and you won't be connected to the property.

Quote from @Rajagopalarao Paidi: How much value goes down for a house with foundation issues, found a house for FixNFlip, they mentioned it has foundation issues and they got them fixed, but whats the value reduction from market price , How safe it is to purchase house like these Not safe at all unless you have an INDEPENDENT inspector who really knows foundation issues gets all the documentation from the seller and talks to the seller’s contractor and then conducts his own inspection of the foundation, house, and surrounding lot.

This will be the brains of your whole operation and is a life saver even with just one property.3)Use dynamic pricing tools like Pricelabs.4) Depending on the budget, look into getting a second person on the team called an "inspector" (not home inspection but STR inspector) who will go in about an hour or 2 before any check-in and make sure the home is ready.
